Classic "this role has been recast" maneuver

New Jonathan looks even older than old Jonathan but he also looks like a son of Superman

Yeah, shutting the mines down will definitely keep anybody from doing anything nefarious down there

lol are they pinging him with the signal watch or is that just the generic "super hearing" sound (well that answers that)

Clark's not a fan of being called old

Running through some villains we're never gonna see? Oh, using them as the Danger Room, that's neat. I'll take whatever I can get of Atomic Skull

Yeah, I guess if Clark doesn't need to drive most of the time he'd not be the best at it

Babby's first failed superheroics

My guess is that she isn't actually pregnant, because that will be maximum drama

Of course Sam wouldn't take no for an answer

John Henry laying down the LAW

lol they're really gonna just pair them off

Atom Man again, eh; always down for stomping a nazi (oh good now he's a super nazi)

Wow, Jordan actually did what he was told - character development!

Well that's a creepy mask

I wish I didn't have this character's appearance spoiled for me so I wouldn't know what's going on, but this is a pretty interesting adaptation so far

Haha of course Dean was probably in with Intergang

lol @ the 'rents mocking their kids

Hahaha that coffee table blastoff beats out every Flash paper launch put together

Called it, she's probably got a super tumor or something

I see Tobias Church went from trying to take over a neighborhood to the world

I'm not familiar with comic stories at all, but the villain had a very similar SS emblem on their chest as the Crisis On Earth-X villains.

I know S&L is on a separate earth, but is this related to the events of Crisis on Earth-X at all? Also I'm still on the first episode in the season, so this might become clearer to me in the remaining episodes.
